In every logical way possible, I know and agree that eating meat is immoral. I've had heated arguments with other meat eaters about the issue and then at some point I usually mention that I also eat meat and they're like "what..."
Even though I logically know eating meat is wrong I can't seem to develop an emotional attachment to the cause, which makes it extremely difficult to go through with becoming vegan/vegetarian. It's akin to a person who knows they need to start working out and losing weight, but they just don't have enough of an emotional attachment to the goal to be able to deal with the hardships associated with accomplishing it.
When I think of animals being slaughtered and killed for the petty pleasure and convenience I get from consuming them, it's so obviously overwhelmingly terrible yet I just don't feel any actual emotions attached to that logical process. Even though I wish I did.
What can be done?
